X-Enigmail-Version: 0.95.7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-new at bossdog.realss.com X-Archives-Salt: bb12fe3e-8c2b-4805-a96a-5b7c54b5acd0 X-Archives-Hash: a20a19de3c674dba87109123c01b1aff I always wonder if I can run firefox multi-process instead of multi-threads. I hate to see the browser hang trying to open a huge webpage (>10MB) and that's frequent case in China. Usually at such case I have to lanuch a different browser (e.g. epiphany) in order to keep browsing during loading the big page in Fx. And I think, if fx is itself multi-processed, then each tab or window I open is a process, then it is pretty much alike that I open eiphany when firefox is busy. It should work better. If this is not possible just with a USE flag, is there a browser that works in Gentoo and is designed to be mult-process? I only know safari is multi-process (per window) but it doesn't work on Gentoo. -- Real Softservice Huateng Tower, Unit 1788 Jia 302 3rd area of Jinsong, Chao Yang Tel: +86 (10) 8773 0650 ext 603 Mobile: 159 1111 7382 http://www.realss.com
